Skog Å Kust BackSak Heavy Duty Waterproof Backpack - Gear Bag for Sports, Travel, & More - 25 & 35 Liter Sizes

This 35L bag worked great for us! I used it for Sea World and the Aquatica water parks. This bag went through a torturous day. Everything from being drenched in salt water by 8,000 lb Killer Whales from sitting in the front row of a "splash zone" to the wave pool simulator, lazy river, and various water rides. There were several times that the bag and all of our belongings were completely submerged. Everything was totally dry. I would suggest putting all electronics inside the main compartment. I placed my phone and chargers inside ziplock plastic bags, then placed the items inside the main compartment, and not a drop of water anywhere inside the bag. Make sure to follow the simple instructions and you will be good to go. Here is a summary of what I did that worked very well: Get as much air out of the bag as possible. Close the top and fold it over 3 times. Buckle the straps at the end of the folds to the connectors located on the side of the bag. In terms of useable space the Large bag carried quite a bit with room to spare. Here are some of the items that we had inside the bag just to give you an idea: 2 large beach towels and 1 small beach towel 2 64 oz large Yeti canteens (filled with water) Spare clothes for two people 3 portable chargers, iPhone, lightning cable iPad Air Wallet, keys, and other miscellaneous items Although the bag was filled pretty good, my back surprisingly didn't hurt after carrying it all day due to the comfortable straps and padding. In summary, I would not hesitate to reccomend this bag to anyone looking to keep their belongings dry. Top notch quality at about half the price of some of the popular REI brands.

Absolutely LOVE this 35L backpack. I purchased it in bright yellow! :) I was planning a sailing trip from Oahu to Maui & needed a nice dry bag to pack my stuff in. When the boat keels over, sometimes stuff can get thrown around. The cabin soles can be wet so I wanted something to keep all my stuff dry but still was a reasonable cost. I had made the mistake of using a regular duffel bag last time I sailed to Maui which left some of my clothes inside soaked. This time, I wanted to have a drybag! I found this dry bag while browsing on Amazon. Originally, I had bought the 60L duffel from Såk Gear but after receiving it, I realized the 60L was a bit bigger than what I needed. I returned the 60L (easy return with UPS!) & bought the 35L instead. Of all the drybag backpacks, I had browsed, this one I think is the best! It's roomy enough to easy fit everything in but isn't too large where it would be awkward to carry. The 35L has a padded back & padded straps which make it more comfortable to carry. There's also a buckle strap that comes across your chest. I especially like the two zipper pockets. I use the inner zipper pocket to put my phone/wallet which keeps it dry & also makes my phone/wallet easy to access quickly. The outer zipper pocket is great for some small items that I might need a bit more frequently like chapstick, sunscreen, etc. Tip: Buy packing cubes. Dry bags are typically just 1 large compartment. To sort out my stuff a bit better, I bought some packing cubes to make my own for clothes, toiletries, towel, etc. Overall, great dry bag. It was $54.95 plus free shipping with Amazon prime. I live in Hawaii so typically shipping is more costly than on the mainland so any sellers that offer Amazon prime are great in my book! :) ***EDIT: March 13, 2020. I loved this 35L bag so much that I bought a 2nd one in a smaller 25L size in "Mint" for hiking trips. The price increased a bit to $59.95 for the smaller bag, but I'm happy to pay it! Great quality, huge fan! And, the newer model has a few extra compartments INSIDE the bag. Would recommend!

This is my first time owning a Skog A Kust product and I’m extremely happy! So much attention and detail went into this waterproof dry bag/backpack! Both the outer pocket & inner pockets are huge and fit a lot of stuff. It’s also pretty lightweight for the size. The shoulder straps & waist belt cinch down to stay out of the way as well. We used it for a class II-III kayaking trip in Arkansas and everything stayed dry. If you’re looking for a well made dry bag backpack at an affordable price, get this NOW! I plan to use it for kayaking trips and the occasional backpacking trip.

4 years!!! And it still is going strong. The perfect Sailors bag.

Just received it for an upcoming trip where we will be doing a lot of activities outside. It looks and feels heavy and well-made. In regards to several negative comments, it very clearly says (in several places) the outside pocket is splash and rain resistant. Inside the pack is absolutely waterproof "if the instructions are followed". I will update this after our return and let you know how our cameras, phones, passports, etc. do with this pack. My only concern is packing this in a suitcase for the trip will add weight to the luggage - it is that heavy. (I have and use a lightweight backpack for flying). That said, I'm sure the weight and thickness of material will add to the waterproofing and wear resistance of this pack. UPDATE: I packed this flat in my suitcase for trip to Costa Rica. I thought I would try it for exploring the rain forest canopy and also for some deep sea fishing. In both cases, but particularly with fishing and the bow spray when cranking along at 20knots, EVERYTHING was completely dry. The only thing we had in the outer pocket was our rain gear if needed but even they were dry. The ONLY downfall I could possibly see is also why it works. Although padded in the back with material so you don't have rubber against your shirt, it is still very hot. Nothing you can do about that as it is a trade-off in keeping several thousand dollars of camera equipment dry.

Mochila muy bonita, amplia y duradera.

Ce sac est super pour aller en paddle board. Il est suffisamment grand. Il est étanche à 100%. Il est magnifique. Je l’adore.

Il est d'une super qualité

Great purchase! I used it as my day pack/ “block bag” for my first season of treeplanting! Treeplanting will put any product through the wringer - it’s seen heavy rain, mud, rough handling, rigorous daily use... And it survived and kept all my stuff dry every day! The only flaw (reason for 4 stars) is the front zipper broke after the first couple weeks of using it (stored things like lip chap, hand sanitizer etc) so that was annoying for the rest of the season as it remained open and collecting water whenever it rained. Thank goodness the main compartment was separate & waterproof from that front pouch. One other thing is, it would’ve been nice to have a waist strap to carry some of the weight so it’s not all on the shoulders. Overall it did exactly what I purchased it to do and survived for a second planting season if I choose to go again.

Very satisfied with this backpack, worth to buy it
